Avoid Boutique 25 in Skipton if you don’t want your holiday ruined.
The only redeeming feature of this place is the housekeeper, who deserves a medal for working here. Everything else belongs in an anthology of bad hotels.
The rooms look nothing like the glossy photos — unless you enjoy spectacular optical illusions that can turn a donkey into a Porsche. The mattress is soft and saggy, the shower has all the practicality of a garden hose nailed to the wall, and the water couldn’t be persuaded to get hot. The rooms are freezing, but don’t expect heating — instead you’ll be offered a cheap electric radiator, presented as if it were a luxury feature.
Noise from the pub in the basement makes sleep impossible — unless you happen to enjoy the sound of thudding bass as a lullaby.
The host/receptionist? Rude, dismissive, and allergic to helpfulness. When I asked for ice to treat an injury, his only concern was that “the towels would get wet.” His answer: “We don’t have that kind of ice.” (I wasn’t aware there were different breeds of ice — perhaps icebergs, cubes, or stalactites?) A request for late checkout? Denied. Help with luggage? “The housekeeper will do it.”
On arrival, I was told this is “a hotel for couples.” That explains the Bible in the drawer — clearly there for some light, edifying pillow talk.
This isn’t a boutique hotel. It’s a cold, noisy, badly run joke — but without the laughs.
